Sitting here at DIA my flight is about an hour and 40 minutes away and I could not be more excited. I did not think it would happen, but it did! My fursuit is complete! except for the feet. Got it finished yesterday about noon after being up all night long working on it. It is a tad big in some places, but overall very well done. The tail hangs out a little bit so you can see the elastic strap, not too worried about it, will sew it in at a later date.
The only trouble we had putting the suit together, was the damn zipper. Without a zipper foot on the machine, we could not get it on. So after 3 tries of ripping out seams, we took it to a tailor and had it professionally installed for $20. But even they did it wrong the first time, it was not hidden like it should have been.
I put rubber soles onto the bottom of my happy feet slippers so I can wear them outdoors, using gorilla glue to keep them on until I can think of something better or get what leftover fur I have left sent out to someone who can make me some feet.
The amount of fur I had left was staggering, I bought way to much and still have maybe about 3 1/2 yards left of each color.
But through all the bumps and hitches, it got done and I could not be happier with it.
